Autofill with extensions

Preamble

For convenience Psono's extensions offers the possibility to autofill password forms. This will explain how the mechanism works.

How does autofill with extensions work?

1. Make sure that you installed the browser extension and that you are logged in. Afterwards the process looks like this:

2. When you Edit an entry and open the "advanced" options (Link at the bottom right), you will see something similar to this:

3. So when the entry was created you specified an URL (second field from the top, e.g. https://example.com/users/sign_in).

4. The extension automatically "extracted" a domain for the so called "domain filter" (fourth field from the bottom, e.g. example.com).

TIP

You can manually modify this urlfilter and also add multiple other domains, separated by a comma. Wildcard matching is also possible e.g. *.example.com would match e.g. sub.example.com and example.com.

5. Whenever you visit now a page, that has a password form, Psono will list all entries with matching urlfilters.

6. Click on the entry and Psono will automatically fill out the username and password.
